The Honeymoon It has always been tradition for the bride and the groom to head off after their wedding to their honeymoon. But in modern times, it has become more common to wait and there are a number of reasons for this. From visitors that have travelled hundreds – even thousands – of kilometres to witness you get married, to the cost of travel blowing your budget, there are certainly many reasons why honeymoons are more commonly taken in the weeks following the big day. But when do you start planning for your honeymoon? It’s a romantic affair and one that needs the utmost care put into its planning. From getting your pets cared for while you are away, to mail collection, booking your flights, accommodation, car hire, and more, there’s so much to do! The fi rst thing you need to do is consider your budget and time. Never overspend because you are only going to come back to debt, and it’s not the best way to start married life. The second thing you need to do is consider places you’ve always wanted to go. Has it been your dream to walk on the sandy beaches of the Gold Coast? Or travel via camel through Egypt? It’s your honeymoon, you generally only get one so make it a trip of a lifetime. You need to then organise passports, visas, insurance and documentation – this is very important if you are planning on travelling further afi eld than the likes of Australia. Find out what medications you require if you are travelling to countries that have wildlife that isn’t available here – e.g. malaria tablets. Don’t over pack either – you want to leave room for shopping, souvenirs and avoiding those fees for too much luggage! But most importantly, have the time of your life!

Phone 218 9886 Wedding Guide 9 W Party Planning Before you go into a panic about where to hold your reception, remember that this event should be less about worrying about the small details, and more about having your friends and family together in one place to celebrate with you. First, determine the location for the reception. Although having it at the same place as the ceremony will make things easier, you can choose to have it elsewhere if you’d like. Popular choices include hotels, restaurants, residences, clubs or museums. Remember, whatever location you choose will set the tone for the reception. After selecting a location, check into the fees and make sure they will fit into your budget. At some locations, a flat fee will cover everything, including food and parking. At others, all it will cover is the site rental and you will have to work with other companies or suppliers to get what you need. Keep track of what each company will provide and what you’ll be charged. The next question is food. Do you want appetisers or a full meal? Budget is a factor, so know the number of people you’ll be feeding before you call for menus and prices. Find out if plates, glasses and silverware are included in the price, and if not, what the cost for those will be. If they’re not provided, have your caterer suggest other suppliers. With food come beverages. Be sure to include the cost of alcohol, including bartenders and any wait staff. Consider, too, the liability of serving alcohol and provide a shuttle or taxi for those who may need one. Consider parking and entertainment as well. For parking, take into account any valet service or security guards that might be needed. For entertainment and dancing, think about bands, juke boxes and DJs and check around for prices and offerings. Many DJs provide their own equipment and can oblige any number of musical requests and styles. Finally, don’t forget to factor in decorations in your spending plan. These can be as elaborate or as minimal as you like. Some couples like traditional elegance with white cloths, candles, flowers and a colour theme. Others stick with what’s on offer at the venue, letting the atmosphere speak for itself. Decorations are normally determined by your colour scheme or theme. This is where your imagination and creativity can run amok – subject to your budget of course. Remember: if in doubt, leave it out. Simple is often best.
